We spent the night (lived) in this hotel for a day when we got acquainted with the hotels of Kogala. Often, trips to Long Beach come across at a very affordable price. This is one of the cheapest "fours" in Sri Lanka. But cheap doesn't mean bad. Rooms: a modest room with everything you need, and most importantly (for me) - clean, serviceable plumbing, a glass shower cubicle (without any curtains with mold) and bed linen. This hotel has it all. All deluxe rooms and suites have ocean views. BUT! The hotel has standards, which are located in a two-story building in the courtyard. There, on the first floor, instead of a balcony, there is a terrace, and on the second floor there is no balcony (terrace) at all. Just a bigger room. So - they have a view of the wall of the main building. Food - quite tolerable. Of course, the choice is limited and you will not find any frills, but there is meat with side dishes, there are fruits. There aren't enough vegetables. ) Beach: the hotel is stretched along the road and is located between it and the coastline. The length of the beach (and width) is enough for a comfortable stay. Sun loungers on the grass, and 10 meters away there is already a sandy beach and a warm ocean. Local natives walk along the beach in abundance, offering various services and goods, but they are not allowed to enter the hotel grounds. Lifeguard available. as well as security. The ocean in our period was not calm, so we splashed gently. You go in knee-deep, and then the ocean will do everything for you: it will cover you with a wave, turn it over, stretch it along the sand. . . In general - strength! Therefore, I recommend the hotel as an inexpensive accommodation option in Sri Lanka. First of all, for those who want not just to lie on the beach, but to see the country. The video review can be viewed below. Have a nice trip!
